Title: Bitcoin icon on TV (City of London) Post by: Meni Rosenfeld on July 26, 2012, 06:16:24 PM In preparation for the olympics, there was a segment on a news broadcast here in Israel telling the story of the City of London (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London) (not to be confused with London (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London)). (The segment itself isn't of Israeli origin so others may have seen it as well.)
In at least 2 points, they talked about its commerce/wealth and used gold coin icons to visualize it. Except that it wasn't just any gold coin. It was the Bitcoin icon. I thought it was pretty cool.

Maybe there is a Bitcoin enthusiast within the production team :) Title: Re: Bitcoin icon on TV (City of London) Post by: k on July 26, 2012, 08:56:18 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrObZ_HZZUc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrObZ_HZZUc)
